- Alexander "Greek" Thomson (9 April 1817 – 22 March 1875) was an eminent Scottish architect and architectural theorist who was a pioneer in sustainable building. Although his work was published in the architectural press of his day, it was little appreciated outside Glasgow during his lifetime. It has only been since the 1950s and 1960s that his critical reputation has revived—not least of all in connection with his probable influence on Frank Lloyd Wright. Henry-Russell Hitchcock wrote of Thomson in 1966: "Glasgow in the last 150 years has had two of the greatest architects of the Western world. C. R. Mackintosh was not highly productive but his influence in central Europe was comparable to such American architects as Louis Sullivan and Frank Lloyd Wright. An even greater and happily more productive architect, though one whose influence can only occasionally be traced in America in Milwaukee and in New York City and not at all as far as I know in Europe, was Alexander Thomson".

- Alexander "Greek" Thomson (9 de abril de 1817 - 22 de marzo de 1875) fue un eminente arquitecto escocés y teórico de la arquitectura, que en alguna de sus propuestas anticipó algunas cuestiones de la arquitectura sostenible. Aunque su trabajo fue publicado en la prensa arquitectónica de su tiempo, fue poco apreciado fuera de la ciudad de Glasgow durante su vida. Solamente desde las décadas de 1950 y1960 ha recuperado algo de su reputación, no menos importante que su probable influencia sobre Frank Lloyd Wright. El crítico Henry-Russell Hitchcock ha dicho sobre él: Glasgow en los últimos 150 años ha tenido dos de los más grandes arquitectos del Mundo occidental. C. R. Mackinstosh no fue altamente productivo, pero su influencia en la Europa central fue comparabla a los arquitectos americanos como Louis Sullivan y Frank Lloyd Wright. Un arquitecto mayor y felízmente productivo, aunque su influencias solo puede rastrearse ocasionalmente en América en Milwaukee y en Nueva York y no en todo lo que conozco, fue Alexander Thomson.

- Alexander Thomson (9 aprile 1817 – 22 marzo 1875) è stato un architetto scozzese. È noto anche come Alexander “Greek” Thomson per il suo stile neogreco, influenzato dall'opera del tedesco Karl Friedrich Schinkel.Operò soprattutto a Glasgow dove, dopo la metà dell'Ottocento, realizzò le sue opere più significative.Ad esempio, la Caledonia Road Free Church (1856) e la St Vincent Street Church (1859) rappresentano originali composizioni derivate dall'architettura greca e caratterizzate da un vasto repertorio eclettico riconducibile persino al neoegizio. La sua influenza tuttavia non raggiunse i contemporanei, ma alcuni critici hanno rilevato che l'architettura di Thomson potrebbe aver condizionato Frank Lloyd Wright, uno dei massimi progettisti del Novecento.
